Red/White Quilt Inspirations

This evening I was looking at the red/white quilt exhibit in that was recently put on in NYC. My mother has an iPad, so I downloaded the app and was able to view each quilt. Oh my. I may spend all my visit here looking at these quilts (which isn’t very sociable). They are so “vintage,” yet so fresh and modern. Quite a yin-yang of feeling as I was looking at them. I noticed that some of the patterns seemed to mimic–or are mimicked by–current quilt patterns.

Create

"The creative act is not an act of creation in the sense of the Old Testament. It does not create something out of nothing: it uncovers, selects, reshuffles, combines, synthesizes already existing facts, ideas, faculties, skills." ~Arthur Koestler
